Oups Vendredi ! Je suis trop impatiente ;)

It is good to see leading economists, including 10 Nobel Laureates, speaking out against Israel's starvation and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians in Gaza. 🙏 @dacemoglumit.bsky.social @davidautor.bsky.social @helene-rey.bsky.social @josephestiglitz.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/jose...

I've been working on a new tool, Refine, to make scholars more productive. If you're interested in being among the very first to try the beta, please read on. Refine leverages the best current AI models to draw your attention to potential errors and clarity issues in research paper drafts. 1/

TOUT VA BIEN! #canicule Il est 10h du matin et il fait 34°C à Perpignan, ressenti de 38°C, et 34°C à Montpellier, ressenti de 39°C. Revenir sur les politiques environnementales est suicidaire. Imaginer lucidement l'adaptation revient a choisir dès ajd ce que l'on va garder & ce qu'on va abandonner.

récurrence affolante des très fortes chaleurs en juin 2025. #Nîmes Courbessac aura enregistré 12 jours >= 35 °C au cours de ce mois, un nombre absolument sans précédent en juin (8 jours en 2003, 1 en 1976), et dépassant n'importe quel mois de juillet du 20ème siècle à Nîmes (début des mesures 1921)!

This graph from @economist.com reveals a major pivot in #economics toward data and empirical work, with theory and modeling taking a back seat. The underlying data is open source at www.causal.claims 🏷️ @prashantgarg.bsky.social @trfetzer.com

Do you believe that academics should be free to decide what they research and how they teach, without interference? Sign EAERE's statement on academic and research freedom to counteract the growing pressure on academics. www.eaere.org/statement-on...

Le niveau de la mer monte. Les risques côtiers augmentent. La nécessité de prendre des décisions et des mesures intelligentes, en toute connaissance de cause est grande. Mais ça y est, la plateforme CoCliCo est en ligne et va pouvoir répondre à ce besoin urgent.

Thrilled to share my new paper in @jeem-econ.bsky.social , coauthored with Raphaël Soubeyran: We explore how differentiating agglomeration bonus *within* vs. *between* landholdings can make biodiversity policies on habitat agglomeration more effective. 📄 sciencedirect.com/science/arti... 🧵 1/10

Les personnes qui restent sur Twitter pour "combattre l'antisémitisme" sont d'immenses Tartuffe. Cette plateforme doit disparaître.

Pesticides néonicotinoïdes : l'Assemblée nationale fait un pas vers leur retour. « Une attaque frontale contre la science, contre la santé et contre la souveraineté », dénonce la députée @delphinebatho.bsky.social (par @sfoucart.bsky.social @mathigerard.bsky.social) ⤵️

It was an honor for me to serve as one of the authors of the economics chapter alongside a distinguished and professional group of experts. I cannot overstate how serious and non partisan this group was.

Why Trump will lose his trade war His people don’t know what they’re doing or what they want (Paul Krugman) paulkrugman.substack.com/p/why-trump-...

Hi #econsky and conservation friends, if you need a hopeful story, the RCT we completed in eastern DRC might be for you. It is about a viable path to clean (electric) cooking, human development, and the protection of endangered wildlife, including mountain gorillas 🧵🧪 tinyurl.com/4jccmcaw

BREAKING from @science.org: The Trump admin is seeking to kill nearly all climate research at NOAA, its climate science agency. Its near-final budget proposal would end all NOAA research labs, academic institutes, and regional climate centers. And it wants to fully end the NOAA Research division.

Nominate, nominate, nominate!

This, from my colleague Brent Neiman says it all. Trump admin used the results from his paper to justify tariff rates. Except they used the completely wrong number. Staggering 🤯 www.nytimes.com/2025/04/07/o...

Here’s a Democratic senator who gets what’s going on…

New chart just dropped.

This chart seems to suggest that something is going wrong in the United States, specifically. (www.ft.com/content/7568... )

The U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) is ending all of its funding for social science research, stopping 91 ongoing studies related to threats such as climate change, extremism, and disinformation. www.science.org/content/arti...

The ability to control mass party opinion this directly is unlike anything I’ve really seen in my time covering politics.

It's been an expensive week of economic chaos. Stocks are down nearly 5%, or over $2 trillion. In personal terms, the value of U.S. S&P 500 corporations is down about -$6,000 per American.

If you do not know French yet, time to learn it so that you can listen to Claude Malhuret, the best speaker of the French parliament on Ukraine and the current political situation. youtu.be/tiRAgvqPr4w?...

The most iconic figure in the environmental sciences is the Keeling Curve, the CO₂ record from Mauna Loa, Hawaii. @noaa.gov had a wonderful site where you could visualize and download these data, and now it's just gone. These data belong to us and we should not let this happen!

I've been meaning to read this paper on mass extinctions (pubs.aeaweb.org/doi/pdfplus/...), and today, I came across this great write-up about it in VoxDev (voxdev.org/topic/energy...). It's a great paper. I am glad I found the time to read it. Below is a short thread.

please repost! :)
